AA's Rated Trips is much like the Michelin Guide whereby a team of critics - or inspectors as they call them - visit restaurants, pubs and hotels around the country. The popular wedding venue in Thornbury has been awarded three rosettes out of a possible five making it the only venue in the Bristol area to receive this accolade.
Both the food and the setting at Thornbury Castle were described as 'solidly impressive and pretty as a picture' by the AA inspector. Weekend service is almost completely booked until the end of March, offering a afternoon tea from £35, three courses a la carte for £78 or the renowned seasonal six-course tasting menu for £92 per head that all champion British ingredients.
